A bit of playing

by Martin on Mar.13, 2010, under Pieces of Design, Portfolio

Here’s a couple of ‘desktop’ style designs I made recently.

I came up with Ornate Apocalypse after seeing a similar design on a Wordpress template – mine’s better though!
It’s a good way to use vectors.

The Nebula one is a little abtract, adding to my other Spacescapes I’ve made in the past.

New Web Layout

by Martin on Feb.23, 2010, under Design for Web, Portfolio

I decided over the last couple of days to make some more web layouts.

This is your typical corporate layout for an IT or perhaps a web services company. The second is a web hosting style design.

Office Space fans will get the Innitech Reference…

Hosting Web Layout

There’s a bit of a design trend recently around fat footers, and I like them too. I’ve kind of incorporated it here. They help with SEO and usability.

Light Painting

by Martin on Feb.18, 2010, under Photography, Portfolio

I was bored late at last night when I really should have been in bed, and decided to play about with my camera for an hour or so; ideal time to try out my new tripod!
Read up a bit about the concept of light painting and long exposures – of course I still need to go and photograph a busy road, but for now, here’s some shots closer to home. It’s so much fun!
I took loads, but I just chose a few…

Aerial-Force.co.uk Re-design

by Martin on Feb.16, 2010, under Design for Web, Portfolio

So, at the moment, the website for Nottingham A/V service company, Aerial Force is not well optimised at all, and looks a bit dated. It doesn’t appear anywhere near the top of Google for relevant keywords.
Never fear, I’m re-designing it and I plan to make it a good contender for a similar, bigger company who also use ‘Aerial Force’. Bit of a business faux-pas if you ask me; to steal the name of a smaller company.

Aerial Force Layout

I came up with this initial layout, opting for a premium feel with dark grey and deep red. I’ll code this up and hopefully get much better conversion and more enquiries from the site.
